This patch functionally reverts: 5fd7a09c ("atomic: Export fetch_or()") During the merge Linus observed that the generic version of fetch_or() was messy: " This makes the ugly "fetch_or()" macro that the scheduler used internally a new generic helper, and does a bad job at it. " e23604ed Merge branch 'timers-nohz-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Now that we have introduced atomic_fetch_or(), fetch_or() is only used by the scheduler in order to deal with thread_info flags which type can vary across architectures. Lets confine fetch_or() back to the scheduler so that we encourage future users to use the more robust and well typed atomic_t version instead. While at it, fetch_or() gets robustified, pasting improvements from a previous patch by Ingo Molnar that avoids needless expression re-evaluations in the loop.

The tick dependency mask was intially unsigned long because this is the type on which clear_bit() operates on and fetch_or() accepts it. But now that we have atomic_fetch_or(), we can instead use atomic_andnot() to clear the bit. This consolidates the type of our tick dependency mask, reduce its size on structures and benefit from possible architecture optimizations on atomic_t operations.

KASAN needs to know whether the allocation happens in an IRQ handler. This lets us strip everything below the IRQ entry point to reduce the number of unique stack traces needed to be stored. Move the definition of __irq_entry to <linux/interrupt.h> so that the users don't need to pull in <linux/ftrace.h>. Also introduce the __softirq_entry macro which is similar to __irq_entry, but puts the corresponding functions to the .softirqentry.text section.

When oom_reaper manages to unmap all the eligible vmas there shouldn't be much of the freable memory held by the oom victim left anymore so it makes sense to clear the TIF_MEMDIE flag for the victim and allow the OOM killer to select another task. The lack of TIF_MEMDIE also means that the victim cannot access memory reserves anymore but that shouldn't be a problem because it would get the access again if it needs to allocate and hits the OOM killer again due to the fatal_signal_pending resp. PF_EXITING check. We can safely hide the task from the OOM killer because it is clearly not a good candidate anymore as everyhing reclaimable has been torn down already. This patch will allow to cap the time an OOM victim can keep TIF_MEMDIE and thus hold off further global OOM killer actions granted the oom reaper is able to take mmap_sem for the associated mm struct. This is not guaranteed now but further steps should make sure that mmap_sem for write should be blocked killable which will help to reduce such a lock contention. This is not done by this patch. Note that exit_oom_victim might be called on a remote task from __oom_reap_task now so we have to check and clear the flag atomically otherwise we might race and underflow oom_victims or wake up waiters too early.

When suspending to RAM, waking up and later suspending to disk, we gratuitously runtime resume devices after the thaw phase. This does not occur if we always suspend to RAM or always to disk. pm_complete_with_resume_check(), which gets called from pci_pm_complete() among others, schedules a runtime resume if PM_SUSPEND_FLAG_FW_RESUME is set. The flag is set during a suspend-to-RAM cycle. It is cleared at the beginning of the suspend-to-RAM cycle but not afterwards and it is not cleared during a suspend-to-disk cycle at all. Fix it.

These patches implement a MEMREMAP_WC flag for memremap(), which can be used to obtain writecombine mappings. This is then used for setting up dma_coherent_mem regions which use the DMA_MEMORY_MAP flag. The motivation is to fix an alignment fault on arm64, and the suggestion to implement MEMREMAP_WC for this case was made at [1]. That particular issue is handled in patch 4, which makes sure that the appropriate memset function is used when zeroing allocations mapped as IO memory. This patch (of 4): Don't modify the flags input argument to memremap(). MEMREMAP_WB is already a special case so we can check for it directly instead of clearing flag bits in each mapper.

由 Helge Deller 提交于
The value of __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE defines the size (including padding) of the part of the struct siginfo that is before the union, and it is then used to calculate the needed padding (SI_PAD_SIZE) to make the size of struct siginfo equal to 128 (SI_MAX_SIZE) bytes. Depending on the target architecture and word width it equals to either 3 or 4 times sizeof int. Since the very beginning we had __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE wrong on the parisc architecture for the 64bit kernel build. It's even more frustrating, because it can easily be checked at compile time if the value was defined correctly. This patch adds such a check for the correctness of __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE in the hope that it will prevent existing and future architectures from running into the same problem. I refrained from replacing __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE by offsetof() in copy_siginfo() in include/asm-generic/siginfo.h, because a) it doesn't make any difference and b) it's used in the Documentation/kmemcheck.txt example. I ran this patch through the 0-DAY kernel test infrastructure and only the parisc architecture triggered as expected. That means that this patch should be OK for all major architectures.

由 Dmitry Vyukov 提交于
kcov provides code coverage collection for coverage-guided fuzzing (randomized testing). Coverage-guided fuzzing is a testing technique that uses coverage feedback to determine new interesting inputs to a system. A notable user-space example is AFL (http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/afl/). However, this technique is not widely used for kernel testing due to missing compiler and kernel support. kcov does not aim to collect as much coverage as possible. It aims to collect more or less stable coverage that is function of syscall inputs. To achieve this goal it does not collect coverage in soft/hard interrupts and instrumentation of some inherently non-deterministic or non-interesting parts of kernel is disbled (e.g. scheduler, locking). Currently there is a single coverage collection mode (tracing), but the API anticipates additional collection modes. Initially I also implemented a second mode which exposes coverage in a fixed-size hash table of counters (what Quentin used in his original patch). I've dropped the second mode for simplicity. This patch adds the necessary support on kernel side. The complimentary compiler support was added in gcc revision 231296. We've used this support to build syzkaller system call fuzzer, which has found 90 kernel bugs in just 2 months: https://github.com/google/syzkaller/wiki/Found-Bugs We've also found 30+ bugs in our internal systems with syzkaller. Another (yet unexplored) direction where kcov coverage would greatly help is more traditional "blob mutation". For example, mounting a random blob as a filesystem, or receiving a random blob over wire. Why not gcov. Typical fuzzing loop looks as follows: (1) reset coverage, (2) execute a bit of code, (3) collect coverage, repeat. A typical coverage can be just a dozen of basic blocks (e.g. an invalid input). In such context gcov becomes prohibitively expensive as reset/collect coverage steps depend on total number of basic blocks/edges in program (in case of kernel it is about 2M). Cost of kcov depends only on number of executed basic blocks/edges. On top of that, kernel requires per-thread coverage because there are always background threads and unrelated processes that also produce coverage. With inlined gcov instrumentation per-thread coverage is not possible. kcov exposes kernel PCs and control flow to user-space which is insecure. But debugfs should not be mapped as user accessible. Based on a patch by Quentin Casasnovas.

Commit 1717f209 ("panic, x86: Fix re-entrance problem due to panic on NMI") and commit 58c5661f ("panic, x86: Allow CPUs to save registers even if looping in NMI context") introduced nmi_panic() which prevents concurrent/recursive execution of panic(). It also saves registers for the crash dump on x86. However, there are some cases where NMI handlers still use panic(). This patch set partially replaces them with nmi_panic() in those cases. Even this patchset is applied, some NMI or similar handlers (e.g. MCE handler) continue to use panic(). This is because I can't test them well and actual problems won't happen. For example, the possibility that normal panic and panic on MCE happen simultaneously is very low. This patch (of 3): Convert nmi_panic() to a proper function and export it instead of exporting internal implementation details to modules, for obvious reasons.

This commit fixes the following security hole affecting systems where all of the following conditions are fulfilled: - The fs.suid_dumpable sysctl is set to 2. - The kernel.core_pattern sysctl's value starts with "/". (Systems where kernel.core_pattern starts with "|/" are not affected.) - Unprivileged user namespace creation is permitted. (This is true on Linux >=3.8, but some distributions disallow it by default using a distro patch.) Under these conditions, if a program executes under secure exec rules, causing it to run with the SUID_DUMP_ROOT flag, then unshares its user namespace, changes its root directory and crashes, the coredump will be written using fsuid=0 and a path derived from kernel.core_pattern - but this path is interpreted relative to the root directory of the process, allowing the attacker to control where a coredump will be written with root privileges. To fix the security issue, always interpret core_pattern for dumps that are written under SUID_DUMP_ROOT relative to the root directory of init.

When new timeout is written to /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs, khungtaskd is interrupted and again sleeps for full timeout duration. This means that hang task will not be checked if new timeout is written periodically within old timeout duration and/or checking of hang task will be delayed for up to previous timeout duration. Fix this by remembering last time khungtaskd checked hang task. This change will allow other watchdog tasks (if any) to share khungtaskd by sleeping for minimal timeout diff of all watchdog tasks. Doing more watchdog tasks from khungtaskd will reduce the possibility of printk() collisions by multiple watchdog threads.

The trace_printk() code will allocate extra buffers if the compile detects that a trace_printk() is used. To do this, the format of the trace_printk() is saved to the __trace_printk_fmt section, and if that section is bigger than zero, the buffers are allocated (along with a message that this has happened). If trace_printk() uses a format that is not a constant, and thus something not guaranteed to be around when the print happens, the compiler optimizes the fmt out, as it is not used, and the __trace_printk_fmt section is not filled. This means the kernel will not allocate the special buffers needed for the trace_printk() and the trace_printk() will not write anything to the tracing buffer. Adding a "__used" to the variable in the __trace_printk_fmt section will keep it around, even though it is set to NULL. This will keep the string from being printed in the debugfs/tracing/printk_formats section as it is not needed.

Pavan reported that in the presence of very light tasks (or cgroups) the placement of migrated tasks can cause severe fairness issues. The problem is that enqueue_entity() places the task before it updates time, thereby it can place the task far in the past (remember that light tasks will shoot virtual time forward at a high speed, so in relation to the pre-existing light task, we can land far in the past). This is done because update_curr() needs the current task, and we might be placing the current task. The obvious solution is to differentiate between the current and any other task; placing the current before we update time, and placing any other task after, such that !curr tasks end up at the current moment in time, and not in the past.

The CPU controller hasn't kept up with the various changes in the whole cgroup initialization / destruction sequence, and commit: 2e91fa7f ("cgroup: keep zombies associated with their original cgroups") caused it to explode. The reason for this is that zombies do not inhibit css_offline() from being called, but do stall css_released(). Now we tear down the cfs_rq structures on css_offline() but zombies can run after that, leading to use-after-free issues. The solution is to move the tear-down to css_released(), which guarantees nobody (including no zombies) is still using our cgroup. Furthermore, a few simple cleanups are possible too. There doesn't appear to be any point to us using css_online() (anymore?) so fold that in css_alloc(). And since cgroup code guarantees an RCU grace period between css_released() and css_free() we can forgo using call_rcu() and free the stuff immediately.

There were two problems with the dynamic interrupt throttle mechanism, both triggered by the same action. When you (or perf_fuzzer) write a huge value into /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate the computed perf_sample_allowed_ns becomes 0. This effectively disables the whole dynamic throttle. This is fixed by ensuring update_perf_cpu_limits() never sets the value to 0. However, we allow disabling of the dynamic throttle by writing 100 to /proc/sys/kernel/perf_cpu_time_max_percent. This will generate a warning in dmesg. The second problem is that by setting the max_sample_rate to a huge number, the adaptive process can take a few tries, since it halfs the limit each time. Change that to directly compute a new value based on the observed duration.

Its possible to IOC_PERIOD while the event is throttled, this would re-start the event and the next tick would then try to unthrottle it, and find the event wasn't actually stopped anymore. This would tickle a WARN in the x86-pmu code which isn't expecting to start a !stopped event.

There is no reason to do it twice: from commit b6f11df2 ("trace: Call tracing_reset_online_cpus before tracer->init()") resetting of per-CPU buffers done before tracer->init() call. tracer->init() calls {irqs,preempt,preemptirqs}off_tracer_init() and it calls __irqsoff_tracer_init(), which resets per-CPU ringbuffer second time. It's slowpath, but anyway.

If tracing contains data and the trace_pipe file is read with sendfile(), then it can trigger a NULL pointer dereference and various BUG_ON within the VM code. There's a patch to fix this in the splice_to_pipe() code, but it's also a good idea to not let that happen from trace_pipe either.

Joel Fernandes reported that the function tracing of preempt disabled sections was not being reported when running either the preemptirqsoff or preemptoff tracers. This was due to the fact that the function tracer callback for those tracers checked if irqs were disabled before tracing. But this fails when we want to trace preempt off locations as well. Joel explained that he wanted to see funcitons where interrupts are enabled but preemption was disabled. The expected output he wanted: <...>-2265 1d.h1 3419us : preempt_count_sub <-irq_exit <...>-2265 1d..1 3419us : __do_softirq <-irq_exit <...>-2265 1d..1 3419us : msecs_to_jiffies <-__do_softirq <...>-2265 1d..1 3420us : irqtime_account_irq <-__do_softirq <...>-2265 1d..1 3420us : __local_bh_disable_ip <-__do_softirq <...>-2265 1..s1 3421us : run_timer_softirq <-__do_softirq <...>-2265 1..s1 3421us : hrtimer_run_pending <-run_timer_softirq <...>-2265 1..s1 3421us : _raw_spin_lock_irq <-run_timer_softirq <...>-2265 1d.s1 3422us : preempt_count_add <-_raw_spin_lock_irq <...>-2265 1d.s2 3422us : _raw_spin_unlock_irq <-run_timer_softirq <...>-2265 1..s2 3422us : preempt_count_sub <-_raw_spin_unlock_irq <...>-2265 1..s1 3423us : rcu_bh_qs <-__do_softirq <...>-2265 1d.s1 3423us : irqtime_account_irq <-__do_softirq <...>-2265 1d.s1 3423us : __local_bh_enable <-__do_softirq There's a comment saying that the irq disabled check is because there's a possible race that tracing_cpu may be set when the function is executed. But I don't remember that race. For now, I added a check for preemption being enabled too to not record the function, as there would be no race if that was the case. I need to re-investigate this, as I'm now thinking that the tracing_cpu will always be correct. But no harm in keeping the check for now, except for the slight performance hit.

Currently dynamic ftrace calls are updated any time the ftrace_ops is un/registered. If we do this update only when it's needed, we save lot of time for perf system wide ftrace function sampling/counting. The reason is that for system wide sampling/counting, perf creates event for each cpu in the system. Each event then registers separate copy of ftrace_ops, which ends up in FTRACE_UPDATE_CALLS updates. On servers with many cpus that means serious stall (240 cpus server): Counting: # time ./perf stat -e ftrace:function -a sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 370,663 ftrace:function 1.401427505 seconds time elapsed real 3m51.743s user 0m0.023s sys 3m48.569s Sampling: # time ./perf record -e ftrace:function -a sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ] Warning: Processed 141200 events and lost 5 chunks! [ perf record: Captured and wrote 10.703 MB perf.data (135950 samples) ] real 2m31.429s user 0m0.213s sys 2m29.494s There's no reason to do the FTRACE_UPDATE_CALLS update for each event in perf case, because all the ftrace_ops always share the same filter, so the updated calls are always the same. It's required that only first ftrace_ops registration does the FTRACE_UPDATE_CALLS update (also sometimes the second if the first one used the trampoline), but the rest can be only cheaply linked into the ftrace_ops list.

The traceoff_on_warning option doesn't have any effect on s390, powerpc, arm64, parisc, and sh because there are two different types of WARN implementations: 1) The above mentioned architectures treat WARN() as a special case of a BUG() exception. They handle warnings in report_bug() in lib/bug.c. 2) All other architectures just call warn_slowpath_*() directly. Their warnings are handled in warn_slowpath_common() in kernel/panic.c. Support traceoff_on_warning on all architectures and prevent any future divergence by using a single common function to emit the warning. Also remove the '()' from '%pS()', because the parentheses look funky: [ 45.607629] WARNING: at /root/warn_mod/warn_mod.c:17 .init_dummy+0x20/0x40 [warn_mod]() Reported-by: NChunyu Hu <chuhu@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NJosh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Acked-by: NHeiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Tested-by: NPrarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com> Acked-by: NPrarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com> Acked-by: NSteven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
